No, LeBron James isn’t bringing his talents to the North Side.But you can add gracious loser to the Cleveland Cavaliers star’s already impressive resume.James made good on his bet with Chicago Bulls guard Dwyane Wade by wearing a Cubs uniform upon arrival for Friday night’s game at the United Center.The former Miami Heat teammates made the bet as the World Series featuring their favorite baseball teams kicked off last month and when the Cubs roared back from a 3-1 deficit (sound familiar, Cavs fans?), James was forced to wear the Cubs uniform (with the No. 23 on the back) during his first visit to Chicago.Wade greeted James as Cavs players got off their bus and the pair joked about the bet as they headed to their respective dressing rooms.“It’s all in good fun,” Bulls coach Fred Hoiberg said. “He and Dwyane obviously have an unbelievable relationship. Two very good friends that won championships together. Yeah, pretty cool.”Hoiberg was then asked if he owned a Cubs uniform.“I was going to wear it in but ...,” Hoiberg said with a laugh.
